Abstract
Description
本發明實施例一般關於積體電路裝置,更特別關於多閘極裝置如全繞式閘極裝置。Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to integrated circuit devices, and more particularly to multi-gate devices such as all-wound gate devices.
電子產業對更小且更快的電子裝置的需求持續成長,其可同時支援大量的複雜功能。為了符合這些需求,積體電路產業的持續趨勢為製造低成本、高效能、與低能耗的積體電路。達成這些目標的主要方法為減少積體電路尺寸(比如最小的積體電路結構尺寸),進而改善產能與降低相關成本。然而縮小尺寸亦增加積體電路製造製程的複雜度。因此為了實現積體電路裝置與其效能的持續進展,積體電路的製造製程與技術亦需類似進展。The electronics industry continues to demand smaller and faster electronic devices that can simultaneously support a large number of complex functions. In order to meet these demands, there is a continuing trend in the integrated circuit industry to manufacture low cost, high performance, and low power consumption integrated circuits. The main way to achieve these goals is to reduce the size of the integrated circuit (eg, the smallest structure size of the integrated circuit), thereby improving the yield and reducing the related cost. However, shrinking the size also increases the complexity of the integrated circuit manufacturing process. Therefore, in order to achieve continuous progress in integrated circuit devices and their performance, similar progress is required in the manufacturing process and technology of integrated circuits.
近來已導入多閘極裝置以改善閘極控制。多閘極裝置可增加閘極-通道耦合、減少關閉狀態電流、及/或降低短通道效應。這些多閘極裝置之一為全繞式閘極裝置(亦可視作多通道裝置),其包括堆疊的多個通道,且其閘極結構可部分或完全延伸於多個通道周圍以接觸通道區的至少兩側。全繞式閘極裝置可大幅縮小積體電路技術、維持閘極控制、緩解短通道效應、以及無縫整合至現有的積體電路製造製程。隨著全繞式閘極裝置持續縮小,產生多種挑戰。舉例來說,無法適當實施抗擊穿佈植以達所需效果,因為摻質擴散於通道區中(與其他問題)而劣化遷移率與其他裝置效能,特別是對高遷移率的通道而言。因此亟需積體電路結構與其製作方法解決上述問題。Recently, multi-gate devices have been introduced to improve gate control. Multiple gate devices can increase gate-channel coupling, reduce off-state current, and/or reduce short channel effects. One of these multi-gate devices is a full-wrap gate device (also known as a multi-channel device), which includes multiple channels stacked and whose gate structure can extend partially or completely around the multiple channels to contact the channel area at least two sides of the Wrap-around gate devices can greatly shrink IC technology, maintain gate control, mitigate short channel effects, and seamlessly integrate into existing IC manufacturing processes. As all-wrap-around gate devices continue to shrink, several challenges arise. For example, punch-through resistant implants cannot be properly implemented to achieve the desired effect because dopant diffusion in the channel region (among other issues) degrades mobility and other device performance, especially for high-mobility channels. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an integrated circuit structure and a manufacturing method thereof to solve the above-mentioned problems.

擴散阻擋層204形成於基板202上,其中擴散阻擋層204的組成與厚度設計為在後續階段形成抗擊穿結構的步驟時,可有效阻擋摻質擴散。在所述實施例中,擴散阻擋層204為半導體層。在所述實施例中,擴散阻擋層204為矽鍺層。具有合適鍺濃度與足夠厚度的矽鍺可阻擋硼擴散。舉例來說,可磊晶成長矽鍺於基板202上,以形成擴散阻擋層204。在一些實施例中,擴散阻擋層204的磊晶成長方法可為分子束磊晶製程、化學氣相沉積製程、有機金屬化學氣相沉積製程、其他合適的磊晶成長製程、或上述之組合。The

擴散阻擋層204與半導體層堆疊205的半導體層的半導體材料不同,特別因為個別功能而與半導體層210與半導體層215的組成及厚度不同,如上所述。舉例來說,半導體層210包括矽而半導體層215包括矽鍺時,擴散阻擋層204包括矽鍺但鍺濃度、厚度、或上述兩者不同以有效阻擋擴散。具體而言,擴散阻擋層204的鍺濃度大於半導體層215的鍺濃度,且擴散阻擋層204的厚度可進一步大於半導體層215各自的厚度。在一些例子中,擴散阻擋層204的鍺濃度介於約25原子%至約50原子%之間,且其厚度t3介於約10 nm至約15 nm之間。在一些例子中,擴散阻擋層204的鍺濃度大於25原子%,且其厚度t3大於8 nm。The

此抗擊穿結構240為p型摻雜結構,其設置於擴散阻擋層204之下,且擴散阻擋層204限制抗擊穿結構240擴散至通道中。抗擊穿結構240的厚度取決於固體摻雜源材料層234的摻質濃度與熱退火製程(包括退火溫度與退火時間)。在一些例子中,抗擊穿結構240的厚度大於100 nm,比如約200 nm至500 nm。在一例中,抗擊穿結構240所用的p型摻質濃度為約1x10

在一些實施例中,隔離結構230B包括襯墊232、填充介電材料層236、與固體摻雜源材料層244。在所述實施例中,襯墊232與填充介電材料層236的組成,與隔離結構230A中的襯墊232與填充介電材料層236的組成類似。固體摻雜源材料層244位於隔離結構230B的頂部。固體摻雜源材料層244不同於固體摻雜源材料層234,且包括相反導電型態的摻質如磷。固體摻雜源材料層244為介電材料,其含有所需摻質如磷。在所述實施例中,固體摻雜源材料層244包括磷矽酸鹽玻璃,其形成方法可為沉積如化學氣相沉積或其他合適製成。固體摻雜源材料層244的磷濃度大到足以在後續階段中,有效地形成對應的抗擊穿結構。在一些實施例中,固體摻雜源材料層244與圖5C中的固體摻雜源材料層244類似。舉例來說,固體摻雜源材料層244的磷濃度大於15原子%,比如介於15原子%至30原子%之間。固體摻雜源材料層244的厚度可介於5 nm至50 nm之間。In some embodiments, the
在形成襯墊232與填充介電材料層236之後,可進行化學機械研磨製程以移除鰭狀物主動區的頂部上的這些材料並平坦化上表面,進而形成隔離結構230B。之後可對這些材料(如襯墊232與填充介電材料層236)進行選擇性蝕刻製程以使隔離結構230B凹陷,且選擇性蝕刻製程可為任何合適的蝕刻製程如乾蝕刻、濕蝕刻、或上述之組合。After forming the
之後沉積固體摻雜源材料層244於填充介電材料層236上,且沉積方法可為化學氣相沉積或其他合適的沉積方法。之後可對固體摻雜源材料層244進行蝕刻製程,以移除鰭狀主動區如鰭狀物218A的側壁上的固體摻雜源材料層244,使固體摻雜源材料層234低於擴散阻擋層204。因此擴散阻擋層204可阻擋並限制後續擴散。Afterwards, a solid dopant
如圖6D所示,可進行驅動製程以驅動摻質(如此例中的磷)至鰭狀主動區如鰭狀物218B中,以形成抗擊穿結構246。抗擊穿結構246可為位於擴散阻擋層204之下的n型摻雜結構。在所述實施例中,驅動製程可為熱退火製程,其熱退火溫度與退火時間可設計以有效驅動摻質至鰭狀主動區如鰭狀物218B中。之後可移除圖案化遮罩242。As shown in FIG. 6D , a drive process may be performed to drive dopants, such as phosphorous in this example, into the fin-shaped active region, such as
在一些實施例中,形成抗擊穿結構246的擴散阻擋層204可具有不同設計以有效阻擋擴散摻質磷。舉例來說,與n型井203B相關的擴散阻擋層204的組成、濃度、厚度、結構、或上述之組合的設計,可不同於與p型井203A相關的擴散阻擋層204。舉例來說,與n型井203B相關的擴散阻擋層204可包括碳化矽、砷化鎵、其他合適組成、或上述之組合。在此例中,可分開形成p型井區與n型井區中的擴散阻擋層204。舉例來說,可由圖案化遮罩n型井區(可採用形成p型井所用的相同圖案化遮罩),接著磊晶成長矽鍺的擴散阻擋層於p型井區中。之前或之後可採用圖案化遮罩覆蓋p型井區(可採用形成n型井所用的相同圖案化遮罩),接著磊晶成長不同組成的擴散阻擋層(如碳化矽或砷化鎵)於n型井區中。In some embodiments, the

如圖8A至8D所示,閘極結構260形成於鰭狀物218A及218B的部分與隔離結構230上。閘極結構260的長度方向不同於(比如垂直於)鰭狀物218A及218B的長度方向。舉例來說,閘極結構260沿著x方向延伸且彼此實質上平行,其具有定義於y方向中的長度、定義於x方向中的寬度、與定義於z方向中的高度。閘極結構260位於鰭狀物218A及218B的部分上,並定義鰭狀物218A及218B的通道區264與源極/汲極區262。在X-Z平面中,閘極結構260包覆鰭狀物218A及218B的上表面與側壁表面。在Y-Z平面中,閘極結構260位於鰭狀物218A及218B的個別通道區264的上表面上,使閘極結構260夾設於個別的源極/汲極區262之間。閘極結構260各自包括閘極區260-1以對應即將設置為用於n型全繞式閘極電晶體的個別閘極結構260的一部分(因此對應跨過n型全繞式閘極電晶體區的一部分),以及閘極區260-2以對應即將設置為用於p型全繞式閘極電晶體的個別閘極結構260的一部分(因此對應跨過p型全繞式閘極電晶體區的一部分)。可設置不同的閘極結構260於閘極區260-1與閘極區260-2中。舉例來說,閘極結構260的金屬閘極堆疊各自越過閘極區260-1與閘極區260-2,且在閘極區260-1與閘極區260-2中可具有不同設置,以最佳化n型全繞式閘極電晶體(具有n型閘極於閘極區260-1中)與p型全繞式閘極電晶體(具有p型閘極於閘極區260-2中)的效能。綜上所述,閘極區260-1可視作n型閘極區260-1,而閘極區260-2可視作p型閘極區260-2。As shown in FIGS. 8A-8D ,

g定義n型全繞式閘極電晶體及/或p型全繞式閘極電晶體開啟時,電流(如載子,比如電子或電洞)流動於源極/汲極區262之間的距離(或長度)。在一些實施例中,閘極長度為約5 nm至約250 nm。可調整閘極長度以達全繞式閘極電晶體所需的操作速度,及/或全繞式閘極電晶體所需的封裝密度。舉例來說,當全繞式閘極電晶體開啟時,電流流動於全繞式閘極電晶體的源極/汲極區之間。增加閘極長度將增加電流流動於源極/汲極區之間所需的距離,並增加完全開啟全繞式閘極電晶體所需的時間。相反地,減少閘極長度可減少電流流動於源極/汲極區之間所需的距離,並減少完全開啟全繞式閘極電晶體所需的時間。較小的閘極長度可更快地開關全繞式閘極電晶體,有利於更快的高速操作。較小的閘極長度亦有利於更緊密的封裝密度(比如製作更多全繞式閘極電晶體於積體電路晶片的給定面積中),其可增加積體電路晶片上的功能與應用。在所述實施例中,可設置一或多個閘極結構260的閘極長度,使全繞式閘極電晶體的通道長度短。舉例來說,長度通道短的全繞式閘極電晶體的閘極長度可為約5 nm至約20 nm。在一些實施例中,多閘極裝置200可包括具有不同閘極長度的全繞式閘極電晶體。舉例來說,可設置一或多個閘極結構260的閘極長度,使全繞式閘極電晶體的通道長度中等或長。在一些實施例中,通道長度中等或長的全繞式閘極電晶體的閘極長度,可為約20 nm至約250 nm。
